Thanks for the recommendation and review! I prefer 3rd-person storytelling, but will jot this down and look for it.

This book was written contemporarily during WWII. As you can probably guess there was political intrigue. McCloy's writing style was very appealing, at least to me. It flowed so naturally without the long monotonous breaks. Definitely a page-turner.
The story is written in the first person narrative ...
A highly recommended read. "A"
